Which Podium will remain the same between Tokyo and Paris

I checked individual athletics and swimming (and diving) events and I think there's never been a fully repeated podium in consecutive Olympics?* Maybe this time with only a 3 year gap it could be different but it seems mighty hard, I wonder how many times in happened across all sports (in individual events).

 

*yes, exactly once, see below

Both field hockey tournaments are contenders for a repeat podium. But even with only like 5 serious contenders, there'a still so many factors in a team sport that an exact repeat remains a small chance.

 

Interesting question!

Men's shot put 2016 -2020  exact same order Crouser - Kovacs - Walsh (and I think that is the only repeat podium ever in an individual event).

I'm sure there are more with the same 3 people, but I remembered this one:    M 200 IM   2008 Phelps - Cseh - Lochte 2012 Phelps - Lochte - Cseh.

Of that kind there are a lot more but I think the question was for the same podium in the same positions. Crouser-Kovacs-Walsh seems to be the only case individually: https://www.businessinsider.com/shot-put-olympians-won-same-medals-back-to-back-olympics-2021-8

    • Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
    • Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.
    • Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig            
    • Skeleton Tour moves on to Yanqing  this weekend.  Asian Cup races tomorrow, then the World Cup on Saturday, and then possibly more Asian Cup next weekend before everyone moves over to Altenberg for the start of the full Skeleton / Bobsleigh tour again. 
    • 2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.
    • But he beat Mouat, who seems to be almost unbeatable 
    • Argentina has a really solid lineup, especially if they have prepared seriously for this event. Of course they don't have a champion like we do, but in this format it is enough to win 1 match to play the decisive doubles.
    • Today we must to beat Argentina. It looks like Sinner will have to win all the singles and doubles for us to defend the title. So far, the 2nd and 3rd favorites before the tournament have already been eliminated: Esp and USA.
